What began as a pair of unsafe, deteriorating decks became a durable, code-compliant outdoor living space. An initial walk-through revealed ledger and stair rot, loose fasteners, and failed waterproofing, so we rebuilt from the sub-framing up. We secured permits, protected the siding, demoed the rot, and installed new pressure-treated framing with corrosion-resistant hardware and proper flashing. For longevity, we corrected drainage slopes, added joist membranes, and set new footings to stabilize high-load areas.
In week two, we installed low-maintenance TimberTech mahogany decking with black modern railings and crisp white fascia. The project finished on schedule in three weeks within the $80k–$120k range. The homeowners now confidently host on a deck they love, praising the bold contrast and solid feel, and said the process was easy to follow, with a result that’s safe, handsome, and built to last.
